I can’t believe it’s been a year since I adopted Meghan the Wonderdog!

A lot has happened in this year: Meghan has made some new friends (including Bou, Darcy, Elvis, and Jake); she’s learned to walk fairly nicely on a leash; she saw her first snow; and she’s finally learned to “shake.”

Unfortunately, all has not been perfect in Meghan’s world. Most recently, she tore her joint capsule in her left knee, and had to have surgery a few weeks ago. Because of her medical condition, which mostly means no running and playing for six weeks, I had to cancel the planned adoption day party with her doggie friends listed above.

Instead, Meghan’s adoption day was rather quiet. Of course I told her how happy I was to have her and gave her a new Kong. I also presented her with a delicious cupcake from Oliver’s Collar.

Here’s a few photos of the event. Please note that the cupcake contained only ingredients safe for pups — definitely no chocolate!

What is that?

A treat? For me? Really?

Such concentration!

Just let me have it already!

Note that the picture of her devouring the cupcake doesn’t exist. You’ll just have to take my word that she grabbed it in her mouth, ran into the dining room and devoured it in two bites.

Now time for a well-deserved post-treat nap.

Just a little P.S.: when I adopted Meghan last year, I was injured and had difficulty walking. This year, she was injured. So I look forward to next year’s adoption day, when both of us will be able to romp around painlessly!
